[cisco-voip] Wireless Coverage problem

[Ahmed Abd EL-Rahman]

No but the controller automatically detects that the AP has external
antenna connected.

Did you tell the controller what antennas the APs have?

Hi All,

                I have 1 WLAN controller 2112 and 10 APs 1242G with
external antennas and I'm facing a problem in the coverage, as while
standing directly under any AP (about 4 meters far) without any
obstacles in-between the signal received at the hand held device is good
and when moving little a bit away the signal decreases to fair and poor
while by using a cheap stand alone Linksys AP in the same place the
signal in the hand held is excellent which is normal due to the small
distance.

 

So anyone has any reasons or solution for this situation ?, maybe there
are some settings in the controller can make the AP optimized for
coverage distance or something like this, please advise.

 

 

Best Regards
